The third movie, to be titled Riddick, will be written and directed by the man behind the first two movies in the series, David Twohy, and co-produced by Twohy and star Vin Diesel. Although plot details are unreleased, Variety suggests that the movie will be closer in tone to Pitch Black than Chronicles.
